Non-toxic chemical

According to the Occidental College's Pollution Prevention Center, more than 35,000 dry cleaners in the United States used perchloroethylene, a toxic solvent commonly known as "PERC." The International Agency for Research on Cancer has announced that PERC is probably carcinogenic to humans. High-level exposure to PERC can affect human health badly.

Professional wet cleaning is the best option for cleaning garments because it uses no toxic chemicals, it does not generate hazardous waste, and does not produce air pollution. Unlike people who work at traditional dry cleaners that use PERC, a highly toxic chemical, people who work in wet cleaners don't have to be worried of the exposure of PERC. Instead, they can work in fresh environment breathing clean air. They use 100% pure water to clean clothes. Therefore, wet cleaning is the safest professional method of garment cleaning.
